Sen. Cornyn's Floor Statement on AIG Bonuses

[nellpost]

I love our President and continue to be impressed with him. God Bless President Obama!

God Bless President Obama and his team! It's good that we have people fighting for us Americans, and not more party of NO.

YOU voted to give them the money, Senator Cornyn! I called your office and urged you not to, but you gave AIG our money anyways. I wonder who funds your campaigns...

Please keep fighting for a free America that will stand strong--not crippled with debt. Thanks for all you do.

"They're in charge... This could be a game changer in one sense. It's tapped into the populist outrage."

You're just another two-face politician playing the game, Cornyn... hope you enjoy your brief time in office cause you NEO-CONS are on your way OUT!

At this point, I'm absolutely sickened that the federal government gets any of my tax money. The past 40 years have shown that they have NO FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY. Doesn't anyone realize that when you start throwing money around, people start pocketing it anyway they can? Why do we allow anyone to spend tax dollars without knowing EXACTLY WHERE AND WHO IS GETTING IT?

Senator...one thing that NO ONE is taking about is the specific price for these bialouts. The International Monetary Fund lends out money to 3rd world countries who can never pay it back. The IMF then seizes ALL the resources of those countries. Americans want to know what is the exact detailed price for these bailouts?

The best way to keep this from happening again is not to hand my money to failing companies! If the members congress worked for an investment firm they would have been fired based on how foolishly they invest.
